Default Surging Idle then dies after warmup and wont start.

First of all I have an 88 mustang gt that has been converted to MAF. When the car hasn't been started for a day it starts up fine but has surging idle problem. After the engine warms up some, it will finally just dies and sounds like it gets no spark at all and wont start again until the engine is completely cooled down. I've checked for vacuum leaks and didn't find any. I understand the surging idle problem could be a simple fix of cleaning some of the sensors in the T/B but not understanding why the engine after it warms up will just die and won't start again. Any help would be appreciated. thanks
